On Monday, Kansas’ Boot Hill Casino became the first in the state to announce sports betting partnerships.

According to the press release from Butler National Corp., owner of the Boot Hill Casino, Bally’s and DraftKings will both partner with the casino to offer digital wagering in Kansas, where sports betting was legalized less than a week ago. To that end, the company plans to open retail sportsbooks “as early as this fall” and was seeking digital partners that would offer a “safe, seamless, and premium sports betting experience.”

Under Kansas law, digital platforms must be tethered to one of the four existing casinos, MLS Sporting KC, or Kansas Speedway.
